Anybody who has every confronted the idea of race or sexism in America, will know how troublesome this topic can
be from time to time. In the political correct world today, we don’t know if it is okay to say ‘black’ or ‘African-American’ or even ‘people of color’? I will suggest to you that this whole BS plot is due to political correctness and the over use of euphemisms in American Language.
When was is bad to say he is a black man? Or why is it okay to say he is a white man? There are so many shades of people in this world, in my opinion, it is just plan STUPID to characterize a person based on the color of their skin. Yes “Black” people are darker than “White” people, but many black people are lighter shades then the WORD BLACK! Also many “White” people share colors of beige, pink and olive…yet they are not called people of color? Why is it that “Black” skinned or dark skinned folk from Africa are called people of color (aka Colored People) and those who have different shades of White are not?
This comes down to the whole mess of LANGUAGE in AMERICA today! If you don’t think so, ask yourself why people from India who are dark skinned, are considered white and those from Egypt are considered Egyptians (not Black) or African American? The whole topic is so confusing…and it makes me so furious! Why? Well I will tell you.
Labels are designed by MAN, and Man has never knew what is best for our world. Putting people in containers of race or gender just places more confusion over issues that really matter. The reason why there is so much disparity within our world today, is due to the confusion that has been created through the divide (in Race, Sex, Economic Class, Social Class, etc…)
IF WE ARE EVER…to get past divisions in our world today…we need to GET RID OF THE LABELS and start looking at one another as PEOPLE, PLAIN AND SIMPLE… DON’T YOU THINK?
Show me I am wrong? I dare you…I am doing everything I can to unite this world before we destroy it thru means of ignorance. Wake Up America, and Wake up WORLD. We all do it better when we do it together — AS PEOPLE! Not race or sex, but as people.
Abundant Blessings and Peace
